Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a digital circuit for a differential receiver for direct sequence spread spectrum signals.
  • Direct sequence spread spectrum modulation has been used for many years, particularly in radio communications with satellites and in the military sector.
  • the data to be transitted modulate a radio carrier.
  • the modulation used can be phase, frequency or amplitude modulation or a mixed modulation.
  • phase modulations which are at present the most widely used.
  • the digital data to be transmitted are bits, which have a period T b , i.e. every T b it is necessary to transmit a new bit. With these bits, it is possible to form groups of bits, also known as symbols, whose period is designated T s and is a multiple of T b . These symbols modulate the radio carrier, e.g. in phase.
  • BPSK Binary Phase Shift Keying
  • QPSK Quadrature Phase Shift Keying
  • the coherent demodulation procedure consists of forming in the receiver a subassembly having the function of estimating the mean phase of the carrier, so as to reconstitute a phase reference. This phase reference is then mixed with the signal received to demodulate the data.
  • the non-coherent demodulation procedure is based on the observation that it is sufficient for the phase reference of the symbol taking place to be compared with the phase of the preceding symbol. In this case, instead of estimating the phase of the symbols, the receiver estimates the phase difference between two successive symbols.
  • DPSK differential phase shift modulation or keying
  • DQPSK differential quadrature phase shift modulation or keying
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 diagrammatically show the structure and operation of a spectrum spread receiver and transmitter operating in DPSK. This prior art corresponds to FR-A-2 712 129.
  • FIG. 1 shows the block diagram of a transmitter having an input Ee, which receives the data b k to be transmitted and incorporating a differential coder 10 constituted by a logic circuit 12 and a delay circuit 14.
  • the transmitter also incorporates a pseudorandom sequence generator 30, a multiplexer 32, a local oscillator 16 and a modulator 18 connected to an output Se, which supplies the DPSK signal.
  • the logic circuit 12 receives the binary data b k and supplies the binary data d k .
  • the logic circuit 12 also receives the data delayed by one order, namely d k-1 .
  • the logic operation performed in the circuit 12 is the exclusive-OR operation on the data b k and the delayed d k compliment (i.e. on d k-1 :
  • the pseudorandom sequence used on transmission for modulating the data must have an autocorrelation function with a marked peak of value N for a zero delay and the lowest possible secondary lobes. This can be obtained by using maximum length sequences (also known as m-sequences) or e.g. so-called GOLD or KASAMI sequences.
  • This pseudorandom sequence ⁇ C 1 ⁇ has a binary rate N times higher than that of the binary data to be transmitted.
  • the duration T c of a bit of this pseudorandom sequence, said bit also being known as a chip, is consequently equal to T b /N.
  • the chip rate of the pseudorandom sequence can be several million or several tens of millions per second.
  • FIG. 2 shows the block diagram of a corresponding receiver of the differential demodulator type.
  • This receiver has an input Er and a matched filter 20, whose pulse response is the time reverse of the pseudorandom sequence used in the transmitter, a delay circuit 22 with respect to a duration T b , a multiplier 24, an integrator 26 on a period T b and a logic decision circuit 28.
  • the receiver has an output Sr restoring the data.
  • the multiplier 24 On designating x(t) the signal applied to the input Er, the multiplier 24 receives the filtered signal x F (t) and the filtered-delayed signal x F (t-T b ). The product is integrated on a period equal to or lower than T b in the integrator 26, which delivers a signal whose polarity makes it possible to determine the value of the transmitted bit.
  • the input filter 20 used in the receiver has a baseband equivalent pulse response H(t) and this response must be the time reverse conjugate complex of the pseudorandom sequence c(t) used on transmission:
  • the signal delivered by such a filter is:
  • the matched filter 20 performs the correlation between the signal applied to its input and the pseudorandom spread sequence.
  • the signal x F (t) will be in the form of a pulse signal, the pulse repeat frequency being 1/T b .
  • the envelope of this signal is the autocorrelation function of the signal c(t).
  • the information is carried by the phase difference between two successive correlation peaks.
  • the multiplier output will be formed by a succession of positive or negative peaks, as a function of the value of the transmitted bit.
  • the output of the matched filter will be formed by a succession of correlation peaks, each peak corresponding to a propagation path.
  • Line (a) represents the filtered signal x F (t)
  • line (b) the correlation signal x F (t)*x F (t-T b )
  • line (c) the signal at the integrator output.
  • This discretion is linked with the spread of the information transmitted on a broad frequency band, leading to a low spectral density of the transmitted power.
  • a good cohabitation with conventional narrow band communications i.e. the same frequency band can be shared by systems using a narrow band modulation and those using a broad band modulation. There is only a slight ambient radio noise increase in the narrow band communications and the longer the sequence the less the noise.
  • Spread spectrum modulation communications have a rejection of narrow band modulations due to the correlation operation performed on reception.
  • Interception difficulty A direct sequence spread spectrum transmission is difficult to intercept due to the low spectral density and the fact that the receiver must know the spread sequence in order to be able to modulate the data.
  • the matched filtering function is obtained by a method using acoustic sound waves, this being described e.g. in the two following articles:
  • a second correlator whose output signal is delayed by a time equal to the duration of a symbol and in this case the delay is produced by the acoustic wave propagation time along the substrate.
  • This digital method is interesting, because it makes it possible to program the matched filter and therefore choose a pseudorandom sequence. Moreover, the insertion losses are very low or even non-existent, which reduces the complexity of the amplifier stage. Finally, the production costs are much lower than with acoustic surface wave components.
  • the object of the present invention is to obviate these disadvantages.
  • the present invention therefore proposes a circuit making it possible to modify the characteristics associated with the pseudorandom sequence, i.e. essentially its length and definition.
  • the circuit according to the invention is also designed so as to be cascade-connectable. All the circuits of the cascade to a certain extent then behave like a single circuit defining an overall pseudorandom sequence, which is formed by the various sequences placed end to end.
  • the invention relates to a digital circuit for a differential receiver of a direct sequence spread spectrum signal, said signal corresponding to a transmission of a carrier which has been modulated by binary symbols carrying an information, said symbols having been multiplied by a pseudorandom sequence, said circuit being characterized in that it comprises:
  • first digital means able to fulfil a first filtering function corresponding to a pseudorandom sequence used on transmission
  • a second digital processing channel receiving a second part of the signal received, said second part being the part which is in phase quadrature with the carrier, said second channel incorporating:
  • the present invention also relates to a circuit comprising a plurality of circuits like that defined hereinbefore, said circuits being connected in cascade.
  • the first circuit (C1) of the cascade receives, on a general input, the first and second parts (I, Q) of the signal received.
  • Each circuit of the cascade which is not at one end of the cascade has its filtering and delay outputs connected to the filtering and delay inputs of the following circuit, each of the filtering means adding to its result by a summating or adding circuit, the result of the filtering means of the preceding circuit and transmitting the sum to the input of the filtering means of the following circuit.
  • the overall pseudorandom sequence used in such a circuit-cascade receiver is then constituted by all the pseudorandom sequences used in each of the circuits, the last circuit of the cascade being the only one to have its multiplication circuit and its integration and clock regeneration circuit activated, the latter integration circuit then restoring the information on its output.
  • FIG. 1, already described, is a block diagram of a known spread spectrum transmitter.
  • FIG. 2 already described, is a block diagram of a known spread spectrum receiver.
  • FIG. 3 already described, illustrates the general operation of a receiver.
  • FIG. 4 shows the general structure of a circuit according to the invention.
  • FIG. 5 shows the general structure of the integration and regeneration block of a clock signal.
  • FIG. 6 illustrates the operation of the preceding block.
  • FIG. 7 illustrates a differential receiver incorporating a cascade of circuits, like that of FIG. 4.
  • the processing of the signal s(t) can take place by the double processing of the parts I(t) and Q(t), more simply designated hereinafter I and Q.
  • the processors which process such signals in general receive on two separate inputs the signals I and Q. These signals are obtained by multiplying the reception signal by a wave either in phase with the carrier or in quadrature therewith.
  • the processors then perform various processing operations in accordance with the modulations used.
  • processing operations consisting of forming the sum or the difference of the products of delayed samples, such as e.g.:
  • the first expression is called Dot and the second Cross, so that it is easily possible to show that the product of a sample of order k of the signal s(t), i.e. s(k) by the conjugate prior sample, i.e. s*(k-1), which is calculated in the receiver for demodulating the signal (cf. multiplier 24 in FIG. 2), to within a fixed phase rotation, is of form:
  • the product Dot permits the determination of the phase shift between two successive symbols, whereas the products Dot and Cross taken together permit the determination of the complete number of times ⁇ /2 of the phase shift between successive symbols.
  • these products Dot and Cross permit the correct, unambiguous demodulation when a differential phase modulation is used on transmission.
  • a spread spectrum signal receiver firstly forms the in phase and in quadrature parts I and Q, followed by a matched filtering and a correlation on each of these signals. From the samples obtained, the receiver calculates the Dot and Cross signals, and from the latter, restores the information carried by the signal received.
  • FIG. 4 The general structure of the circuit according to the invention is shown in FIG. 4.
  • This circuit comprises two similar channels, one processing the in phase part I and the other the in quadrature part Q.
